Zune Home PC dead, music stranded (any hope?)

Emerson · 12-17-2007, 02:19 PM

Well, as of about a week ago, my desktop PC is totally dead. It seems to be an issue with the power supply. Now I rarely used that PC anyway, but I did have my entire music collection on it. So I have now found myself without several gigs of my music.

Is there any way to rip the music off of my Zune and onto my other computer? I know it is possible with iPods and hopefully it can be done here as well.

Thanks in advance.

just download zune software...let it recognize the zune then do reverse sync...should work...then you might have to delete everything off then resync so its not doubled up because it wil show up as coming from a different computer

Just be sure that when you first connect to your new computer, you connect as a guest.

The new software will do it.

Well there is the semi-hard route(Only do this if you get help). You can go buy a new power source and install that.

or

Download a program called Recuva hook the HD with your music on it up to the other desktop that you are currently using. Run Recuva and select what you want to transfer.

or

Just take out the HD with the music on it and leave it in the desktop you are currently using.
